The Lancet Countdown: Tracking Progress on Health and Climate is inviting applications from academic institutions, scientific bodies, and medical/health professional organisations to co-produce policy documents using our 2025 data to translate the latest evidence into actionable insights for decision-makers.
Interested collaborators have until 6 July to submit applications via our Policy Document Application Form.
About the policy products
We collaborate with partners to create three types of evidence-based resources for their countries/contexts:
- Data sheets: Concise summaries of key health and climate indicators for rapid policymaker reference.
- Policy priorities documents: Targeted, concise proposals for systemic change, aligned with COP climate negotiation timelines.
- Policy briefs: In-depth analyses linking data to specific policy opportunities or challenges.
All products are published ahead of COP to inform high-level discussions and are disseminated through the Lancet Countdown’s global channels.
Examples of these products produced in previous years can be found here.
Why apply?
Selected partners will receive:
- Technical and logistical support from our team
- Global reach of the Lancet Countdown’s network
- Opportunities to influence local/national climate-health policies through co-developed outputs
How to get involved
Submit your application via our Policy Document Application Form by 6 July 2025.
We prioritise organisations with proven policy engagement pathways.
Note: Financial support is not provided, but the Lancet Countdown handles final design and broad dissemination.
